MAX30205 Human Body
Temperature Sensor Evaluation Kit
Detailed Description
The MAX30205 EV kit provides a convenient way to
evaluate the MAX30205 human body temperature sensor.
The sensor PCB contains a MAX30205 human body
temperature sensor to allow for temperature data to be
sampled and transferred to the GUI. The MAX30205 EV
kit USBDTMB PCB is used to do I
2
C to HID transaction
translation, transporting the raw temperature data to the
PC through the USB.
Units
Temperature units can be displayed in either Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
Refresh Rate
Use the GUI to set the temperature sample refresh rate.
A minimum of 10sps should be used to avoid self-heating
of the sensor.
Configuration Register
The MAX30205 temperature sensor configuration register
can be set by selecting the check boxes in the GUI.
Refer to the MAX30205 IC data sheet for detailed infor-
mation regarding the operation of the IC.
